I have some Benchmark DAC1s, and they're great, and so is the company, which
helped us a lot recently to replace them. The thing about the Prism AD-2 is
that it has a variety of i/o: two wire, single wire, Toslink, SPDIF on BNC,
plus even RCA, and of course wordclock. There are 17 different connectors on
the back for almost any conceivable situation.

We're at about 85% of where we used to be in terms of capabilities. We're
not going back to New Orleans until it gets better, there's just too much
that needs to happen first. I really can't express in words what's happened;
it's isn't just a money or insurance thing when you lose your home and
business from this sort of thing because the neighborhoods for both are all
gone. I'm really encouraged by the help we've gotten from manufacturers and
friends in replacing equipment. Thanks for asking.
